How does your child's school announce acceptances?

greenbutton–no one hesitates to tout athletic accomplishments at school, in the newspapers, etc. Does that devalue kids that aren’t in that sport? I’m glad that our school goes above and beyond to recognize the top scholars (and even the average to above average). These kids work their rear ends off to get to that level, most of them anyway. Just like the start quarterback works his rear end off to get to that level on the football field. Kids at our school do earn a letter for their letter jacket for academic success and in big, bold letters everyone knows that you are not only a great athlete but a GOOD student. Those letters are prized more than the sports letters by most kids in our school.
